Ingredients

3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 1/2 pounds red-skinned potatoes, diced
1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves
2 large cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper to taste
8 large eggs
1 cup extra-sharp farmhouse cheddar, shredded (about 4 ounces)

Directions

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

Melt the butter in a large, well-seasoned cast iron skillet over medium heat. Add the potatoes and cook, stirring occasionally until tender and brown, about 15 minutes. Stir in the parsley, garlic, salt, and pepper, and remove from the heat.

Push the potatoes aside to make 4 evenly spaced shallow nests and break 2 eggs into each. Bake until the egg whites are cooked and the yolks are still runny, about 10 minutes. Sprinkle the cheese over the eggs and continue baking until it just melts, about 1 minute more. Serve immediately.

OK

I would cook the potatoes longer next time...in the oven before adding the eggs. I don't feel they were all cooked all the... way through. I will also add spinach and some crushed red pepper flakes to give it more flavor.Read more

great recipe... this is one you don't think of but is so good. I cook the potatoes longer then it says but I like them crisp... and when it says a minute longer.... it's a minute otherwise the eggs will be more on the hard side.Read more

A well seasoned cast iron skillet makes a big difference. I bought the Lodge skillet from Food Network store. Price is very... reasonable.Read more
